Yeah that is a dumb idea as it's been shown that part of the population genetically will not like it.
I think it's about 10%. https://www.23andme.com/en-gb/about/factoid/cilantro/Comment

Cilantro is the type of herb where even slightly too much will ruin whatever it's in. It's the main reason why I gave up trying to make my own salsa. Well, that and forgetting to wash my hands after chopping peppers, and before I took a piss.

I make a nice salsa and use a lot of Cilantro. It's really a love/hate situation with it. I definitely love it.
The pepper thing happened to me too... Holy shit that burns!!!!Originally posted by wiseguyComment

I don't mind cilantro in salsa - so long as there's not too much. But in anything else it just about makes me gag. We have a really good Mexican joint near here, staff can barely speak English. And this one little guy will make fresh guacamole at your table and at least he asks if you want the demon weed in it.American by birth. Southern by the grace of God.

Niger crowd sets fire to churches in anti-Charlie Hebdo protest
PUBLISHED: 16:08 GMT, 16 January 2015 | UPDATED: 16:08 GMT, 16 January 2015
NIAMEY, Jan 16 (Reuters) - A protest in Niger against French magazine Charlie Hebdo turned violent on Friday as demonstrators set fire to churches and raided shops run by Christians, residents said.
Police in the former French colony's southern town of Zinder fired tear gas on a crowd of hundreds of people as tyres burned in the streets.
"The protesters are crying out in local Hausa language: Charlie is Satan - let hell engulf those supporting Charlie," said Aboubacar Mamane, a shopkeeper by telephone.
Violent protests in Karachi as well today. Fuck them morons! Fucking religions aren't sacred to everybody everywhere. They really should grow brains and humor...Last edited by Jérôme Frenchise; 01-16-2015, 02:40 PM.posted by Ellyllions Men say, "I'll never understand women."

You can't really consider them serious protests until they start looting liquor stores and McDonalds restaurants..."If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”Comment

Paris is burning!
Even I was shocked that the Pope came out in favour of the terrorists
On Charlie Hebdo Pope Francis is using the wife-beater’s defence
On the day another cartoonist victim was buried at Père Lachaise cemetery, the pope came as near as dammit to suggesting that Charlie Hebdo had it coming. “One cannot provoke; one cannot insult other people’s faith; one cannot make fun of faith,” he said.
Oh yes, you can. You may not choose to. It may not be wise or polite or kind – but you can. And to show you can, without being gunned down, Charlie Hebdo has just gone on sale in the UK, in bolder outlets, proudly defiant with an image of Muhammad on the cover – though with a tear and a kindly thought: “All is forgiven.”
The pope pointed to his aide as he said “If my good friend Dr Gasparri says a curse word against my mother, he can expect a punch. It’s normal. It’s normal. You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others.”
No, it’s not normal to punch someone who insults you; the pope’s Christ certainly didn’t think so. Verbal provocation is never an excuse for violence – that’s the wife-beater’s defence.
Is he saying we must respect any old cult: followers of Black Sabbath, Odin, Scientology, astrology? Or is it the size of a faith that earns it the right to gag mockery?
Whenever the faiths come together to protect their rights jointly, you should smell a rat. They don’t just believe very different things; their professions contradict one another. In real life, it’s Catholic against Protestant, Hindu against Muslim, except in the soup blender of Thought for the Day, where only gentle and similar voices preaching peace and understanding get a voice. Absent is the red-hot ferocity that fuels the Islamists of Isis as they slaughter Christians, or the proselytising Nichiren Bhuddists, or the extremists from Northern Ireland’s religious fringes. Religion is gentle only when it’s powerless, without secular influence.
Charlie Hebdo’s cover will no doubt offend some Muslims – and possibly provoke some. That’s the role of a satirical magazine: to stick two fingers up to propriety. It is a belch in the face of established taste and dignity. You can buy it or not, find it funny or not. Its previous circulation was small, but knowing anything can be said keeps the outer edges of free expression healthy.
The pope went on to say: “There is a limit. Every religion has its dignity … in freedom of expression there are limits.”
Yes, free speech always had limits – the old shouting fire in a theatre or inciting others to violent racial hatreds: those boundaries will be forever disputed. But there has been much ducking and diving over the last week, with a pretence those limits include a ban on offending religious sensitivity. That’s what the pope was proclaiming, demanding a special, anti-Voltairean status of protection for religious ideas – a respect never given to political or other ideas just as passionately he
Today another 50 lashes with the cane rain down on Raif Badawi in Saudi Arabia. “Je suis Raif” is starting to trend on social media as he faces 19 more weeks of flogging for writing his secularist blog Free Saudi Liberals. Governments that flocked to march in solidarity for free speech in Paris last Saturday have done little about this atrocity – far worse when inflicted by a state than by God-delirious terrorists acting as divine executioners. If all those leaders linking arms turned their backs on any dealings with Saudi Arabia, whose Wahbabist insanity has been sent out to infect parts of the Muslim world, they would make more than a gesture for free speech.
The right to make fun of popes, imams and prophets is fading fast as self-censorship for commercial, as much as self-preserving, instincts stops the presses.
The flurry of scandal over Oxford University Press stopping its children’s writers from referring to pigs or pork for fear of risking Middle East sales – or the Harper Collins atlases for export that mysteriously omit Israel for the same reason – show how easily freedom slips away unless scurrilous outriders like Charlie Hebdo can keep mocking church and mosque.Last edited by Seshmeister; 01-20-2015, 11:40 AM.Comment

You were "shocked" by the Pontiff's statement? Really? Doesn't surprise me at all when you consider how fucking corrupt, greedy, and full of shit the Catholic Church truly is. I grew up and was brainwashed in the Catholicism Cult of Shitdom and can tell you not only can one insult "people's faith" but the cancer of religion, any religion should be eradicated from the face of this earth.Comment

Don't let [him] fool you. You are in enemy country. Be alert. Suspicious of everyone. Take no chances. They have had no free speech and read no free press. They were brought up on straight propaganda. They have been trained to hate and destroy. Don't argue with them. Don't try to change their point of view. You will not be friendly. You will be aloof. Don't clasp that hand. It's not the kind of a hand you can clasp in friendship.Comment

Boy oh boy. What a ruckus a false flag causes. If that cop was shot in the head his brains would have been blown all over, the bullet would have damaged the pavement. Interesting this happens right after France was starting to side with the Palestinians. Netanyahu wasted no time showing up for the arm lock photo-op. Looks like the real terrorist may be Israel on this one.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment
